Item Description
This rare 1942 ring was offered by Kix Cereal as a bounce-back offer with
Lone Ranger military rings in April, 1942. General Mills received 85 requests.
Following the General Mills offer, the ring was also offered very briefly by
Kellogg's this time offered as a 'gold ore' ring. The brass ring has adjustable
bands. Each side of the ring has an area with small irregular marks apparently
representing the surface of a meteor. Top has a metal rim with a clear
celluloid cover over small rock pebbles. Tiny bit of luster off the narrow
front and back edges of the base surrounding the opening for a finger but
overall the piece still retains about 90% of its high luster finish. Only our
third or fourth example over 38 years. A beautiful example of a rare
ring.
